Isaiah 42:17
King James VersionSource notes
“They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye our gods.”
Context
14I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, refrained myself: will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.
15I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.
16And I will bring the blind by a way they knew not; I will lead them in paths they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.
17They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye our gods.
18Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
19Who blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger I sent? who blind as perfect, and blind as the LORD’S servant?
20Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.
